Niklas #Luhmann argued that #religion has the function of eliminating #contingency. Regular rituals like daily news, weekly church services or yearly presidential speeches are in the words of Niklas Luhmann and Talcott Parsons events that turn contingency into necessity. The regularity ensures people hear the message, know the rules and apply them. An influence by a single event is a contingency, it can happen or not, but an influence by a regular event is likely.

First, it means genuine inquiry does not touch on the inciting action at points of total doubt or absolute certainty. An incident of inquiry does not begin or end in absolute totalities but only in the differential and relative measures which actually occasion its departures and resolutions.

An episode of inquiry bears the stamp of an interlude — it begins and ends “in medias res” with respect to actions and circumstances neither fixed nor fully known. As easy as it may be to overlook the contingent character of the inquiry process it's just as essential to observe a couple of its consequences —

I've been away at the wonderful #ConTingency #ttrpg convention and I have much to talk about; the games I ran, some thoughts about my GMing and a new journaling game I want to play through! Much content to come...
I had an enjoyable and wide ranging conversation about #contingency with Pat Flynn yesterday.
Apart from the obvious people like the commitee, traders & volunteers who else is going to #ConTingency this week (or is already there)? 😎

Take a #databreach, handle the #communication with #customers a hell, avoid any statement, don't implement a #contingency and #remediation plan, and fail again with the communication.
#LastPass is the new #Target and the new #Equifax apparently. 100 members submitted a #ClassAction against the company for the data breach.
If you handle sensitive data, you should really have a good #incidentResponse plan in place. Which is not just a technical procedure, in involves all levels at a company.

This year’s extension of my project on #composing for #material #contingency of the #clarinet is to put this idea (attached) into action, by making some very odd clarinet barrels: actually by making a modular system where odd barrels can be made by connecting different ‘inserts’ (an idea taken from clarinet maker/repairer Daniel Bangham).

My prep for #ConTingency is done...
(Looks at calendar)
So... just over a month until the
#ttrpg convention then...
(Clock ticks in background)
Starting to plan for #ConTingency next year and sketching out my first sign-up sheet
